It a 30-year tradition that keeps the sounds of music flowing from W.L. Seaton. 

Seaton Band Apple Pie Sale is back for another year. 

"The fundraiser makes it possible to remove the barriers that some students face when pursuing their musical dreams, and allows music education accessible to all students, regardless of personal financial means," stated Dana Hudson, who is associated with the fundraiser.

The apples are donated by local orchards, and the pastry is sourced from locally-owned companies. 

"The success of this fundraiser hinges on the generosity of local orchards and businesses, the cooperation of the staff, teachers, and custodians of W.L. Seaton School, and the leadership of all the students involved in Seaton's award-winning band programs," stated Hudson.

Pies can be ordered online, or in person from a Seaton Band student. 

Pies can be picked up and paid for in person on Saturday, Sept. 29, 2018, and Saturday, October 13, 2018. 

Pies are $8 each or 5 pies for $35.

The outcome of all Seaton band fundraisers is managed by the Seaton Music Parents Association, a non-profit organization, run by volunteers. 

The organization manages the funding of band trips, student volunteer credit accounts, band uniforms, bursaries, scholarships, fundraisers, communications and works with both the band teacher, and the student band council to create a strong, supportive and empowering musical community that has raised a generation of talented, capable and hard-working people to enrich the local performing arts world and beyond.
